Fabulous day with Anna!!

We will be talking about this special day for many years! Omg so good! When you first arrive, the view is breathtaking, and we enjoyed a lovely conversation with our host in the sun looking at the lake. Moving to the kitchen, we made several dishes and had a beautiful meal, again overlooking the lake. One of the highlights of our trip, and a chance to go where we could not have gone and learn about the Cernobbio way of life. Our chef Anna was amazing! Great day! Book this!!!

DO NOT BOOK - they’re not located in Cernobbio

This company’s highly misleading title advertises “cooking classes in Cernobbio”. They’re not in Cernobbio. You don’t find out the address of your cooking class until the morning of (inside the 24 hour no cancellation window). When we got the address of our cooking class, it turned out to be south of Como. I contacted the operator and the chef to cancel and get my refund. The chef was accommodating and understanding but couldn’t do anything from a refund perspective. The operator wouldn’t answer my calls. I submitted a claim through TripAdvisor, and they denied my request for a refund because the operator said no. These extremely disappointing and predatory tactics are why I will also never recommend trip advisor ever again. I’m still working on getting my money back, but save yourself the pain and money. Don’t book these guys.

Operator response

Dear Sir, Thank you very much for this feedback. Please note that when our hosts in the originally selected city (in this case Cernobbio) are fully booked, our system automatically assigns the reservation to the nearest available location in order to ensure that the experience can still take place. We sincerely regret that this solution may not have met your expectations and truly apologize for any inconvenience or disappointment this may have caused. Unfortunately, due to the short notice, and in line with our cancellation policy, we are unable to offer a refund for last-minute cancellations. We truly appreciate your understanding and apologize once again for the inconvenience. Cesarine Team

Perfect for kids

**"We had a wonderful experience at Anna Maria’s house. The hospitality, the home, the family, the food, and the entire atmosphere were lovely. Although it’s not right on the lake, the house is located in a quiet area with great views and surrounded by nature."**

Amazing Experience with Terrific Host Debora!

This is such a unique, fun way to experience lake como. We were so lucky to have Debora who welcomed us into her lovely home and taught us so much about Italian cuisine. She had the most beautiful garden and a terrace where we had dinner with a beautiful view of the lake. She also had great enthusiasm for teaching! Our group didn’t have dietary restrictions, but she has an extensive protocol ready if we had. Couldn’t recommend this more!

A Delicious Day!

Our experience cooking with Margherita was delicious in all ways. She taught us a lot about Italian cooking, Italy, and gave us recommendations of where to go. She was very patient and encouraging to me and my husband as we learned. The food was amazing, communication and instructions clear. We also very much enjoyed her and her boyfriend’s company. We sat, ate and talked just laughing and having a great time. One of our favorite experiences on our vacation! Highly recommend.

Debora has touched my heart with her cooking and with her personality. She is simply fantastic and thanks to the experience that made us live cooking alongside her, my husband had the best birthday! Thank you Debora for your generosity, for your passion, for all the details during the experience, It has been unforgettable.
